摘要

En 中文
Optical frequency combs with equidistant frequency modes have revolutionized metrology and spectroscopy. The most widespread combs consist of periodic pulse trains generated by mode-locked lasers. However, it has recently been demonstrated that most semiconductor lasers based on Fabry-Perot cavities, such as quantum well laser diodes, quantum cascade lasers, and quantum dot lasers, can enter an unconventional regime without traditional mode-locking mechanisms. The time-domain profile of these self-locked combs features a frequency-modulated (FM) wave with quasi-continuous-wave intensity and near-linear frequency chirp. The observation of the FM mode of operation in lasers with significantly different dynamics suggested that this mode is a fundamental operating state of semiconductor lasers, stemming from a deeper underlying mechanism. Thanks to recent theoretical and experimental advances, the origin of FM behavior has become clear. In this Perspective, we discuss the current status of FM combs in semiconductor lasers based on Fabry-Perot cavities, focusing on their physical origin, modeling, characterization, bandwidth enhancement, and potential in future applications.
